We are K-1 visa, filing the petition in August 2015 and interviewing at U.S. Consulate in HCMC on Dec. 21, 2015. We arrived about 7:20 a.m. and people were already filing in the side door - much sooner than anticipated. Get there early and get ready to go in. I won't spoil the experience for you with a play-by-play of ours, but suffice it to say that it was pretty crazy. Don't carry anything with you (other than documents). Ditch the cell phone and computer - not allowed. Don't worry about what line to get in - immigrant/non-immigrant is all the same.
We went in with A LOT of documents - Skype, cell phone, photos, e-mail records, etc. To some degree, I think all of it is necessary - if nothing else, it helps you familiarize each other with the relationship, families, events, timelines, etc. In other words, don't be caught short. Be organized, not scattered. Separate the records - read this website for great ideas.
My fiancee and I disagreed on how to pack... read complete review

My visa was approved after a hard time at the consulate, but it was approved faster than I expected.
On my initial interview on Nov 2nd, I was given the 221g blue slip. I was required to submit additional proof. To be fair, my case had quite a number of red flags: 23 years of age gap; getting to know each other from an online dating site in Jan 2015; having met in person for only once, for 2 weeks in March 2015; getting engaged after only 3 months of talking online and meeting in real life for half a month; not having a traditional Vietnamese engagement ceremony; my American fiance's divorce was just finalized in Sept 2014; he filed 2014 tax jointly with his ex wife; he stayed at his ex wife's house (previously their old house) for 2 months last June and July (to help fixing the house and sell it); he was divorced twice (his 1st marriage last only one year, his 2nd marriage last 18 years); he has three children...

My fiance went in for her interview on November 13th. She arrived there at about 7:30 in the morning and was done by 11:30 a.m. She said it was very simple. They asked a couple of simple questions, asked to see some pictures of us together, and they approved her. The days leading up to the interview, she was worried about what to expect, but she said that it was easier and less stressful than she thought was going to be. Overall a very good experience.
